Flaws: There are some minor skips at 7:22 and 7:30 on disc 2 track 3. And this is the most important part because Billy is
talking about playing a new song for the first time on the entire Siamese Dream tour (which turns out to be B.W.B.W.).

Notes
Well, I'm pleased to say that I was personally on the barricade at this show. I didn't know it at the time, but this
turned out to be a pretty monumental show. It was the VERY first live performance of B.W.B.W. ever!! A whole 19 MONTHS before
Mellon Collie was released - and I was only 5 feet away - hehe. Anyway, this show holds the ONLY known tease of Communication
Breakdown [Led Zepplin], one of only 4 known teases of Spaced (and recall that Pisces Iscariot wasn't released until
Oct. 94 - still 7 months from this show), as well as one of the very few versions of Bye June (which you can tell that
Billy would've played the whole thing if he could only have remembered it). It also has only one of 3 known teases of
Unchained [Van Halen]. And it all happened in a matter of 15 minutes. As I said, I didn't know the full meaning of
this show at the time, but I'm glad I was a part of it.
